Multivariate Frailty Models for Exchangeable Survival Data with Covariates
We consider a multivariate lognormal frailty model for correlated exchangeable failure time data, where the marginal lifetimes have conditional Weibull distributions. We discuss Bayesian statistical methods to fit this model to experimental data with varying cluster sizes. The Bayesian inferential approach arises naturally from the hierarchical structure of the frailty model. In contrast, imple...
متن کاملBayesian Model Averaging for Generalized Linear Models with Missing Covariates
We address the problem of estimating generalized linear models (GLMs) when the outcome of interest is always observed, the values of some covariates are missing for some observations, but imputations are available to fill-in the missing values. Under certain conditions on the missing-data mechanism and the imputation model, this situation generates a trade-off between bias and precision in the ...
متن کاملMulti-index regression models with missing covariates at random
AMS subject classifications: 62H12 62G20 Keywords: Covariates missing at random Inverse selection probability Multi-index model Single-index model a b s t r a c t This paper considers estimation of the semiparametric multi-index model with missing covariates at random. A weighted estimating equation is suggested by invoking the inverse selection probability approach, and estimators of the indic...
متن کاملEstimation in Partially Linear Models With Missing Covariates
The partially linear model Y DXT ̄C o.Z/C 2 has been studied extensively when data are completely observed. In this article, we consider the case where the covariate X is sometimes missing, with missingness probability 1⁄4 depending on .Y;Z/. New methods are developed for estimating ̄ and o.¢/. Our methods are shown to outperform asymptotically methods based only on the complete data. Asymptotic ...
متن کاملImputed Empirical Likelihood for Varying Coefficient Models with Missing Covariates
The empirical likelihood-based inference for varying coefficient models with missing covariates is investigated. An imputed empirical likelihood ratio function for the coefficient functions is proposed, and it is shown that iis limiting distribution is standard chi-squared. Then the corresponding confidence intervals for the regression coefficients are constructed. Some simulations show that th...
